Two Faces of the Same Coin is an Egyptian comedic drama sparked by a land ownership dispute that pits a wealthy young woman against a humble employee. Both parties are equally determined: she wants him off the land, he demands fair compensation. When the case lands in court, the judge uncovers a legal loophole that sets the story spinning in unexpected directions. Light in tone but pointed in its commentary, the film uses the absurdities of legal bureaucracy to explore class difference and the surprisingly equal footing the law can sometimes create between the powerful and the powerless.
